Yes, it’s been quiet, but I assure you, I’ve been busy. Figured it’s time to post an update as to what’s going on.
Mono
I’ve got Mono 1.0.1 all put together, just need to do some final testing and put it out. Sorry, there still is no modern mono on 10.2-gcc3.3, it refuses to build and I haven’t found a solution yet.
KDE
I got various builds of KDE 3.3 beta working, and it seems to have shaped up pretty well. KDE 3.3 is being uploaded right now and will go live very soon, I’m working on getting everything updated to KDE 3.3 final and I’ll see if things will be ready for release… well… sometime. 😉
PostgreSQL
It looks like the major problems in the PostgreSQL packages have been ironed out now. I’m working on putting together a PostgreSQL 8.0 package, too, with the 8.0 beta.
X.org X Server
The new release of the X.org X Server is coming, and I’m going to work on packaging that up as well. I’ve got a package in my exp tree but haven’t actually tried building it yet. 😉

I’ve got mono 1.0 in the 10.3 tree now, including monodoc, gtk#, gecko#, gtksourceview#, and libgdiplus. XSP is still crashy, so I’ve removed it for now, and monodevelop still doesn’t run either. Hopefully we’ll get those worked out shortly. KDE 3.3 is coming along nicely. Most of it is compiling, running into a few minor snags here and there but it’s runnable. I’ll post when I’ve got everything ready for those willing to dig into the experimental tree and give them a shot. 🙂

PostgreSQL 7.3.6 and 7.4.3 are in unstable in the 10.3 tree now; I’m testing in the 10.2-gcc3.3 tree at this moment and hope to release them there soon as well. I’ve got most of KDE 3.2.3 built and just need to do some spot-checking and last-minute cleanup of the packages. Mono has some stuff that’s broken that I’ve gotta figure out before I can release, but I think I’ve got all the pieces put together at least. I guess that’s about it. I’m glad to have the PostgreSQL thing out in the wild, I’m tired of messing with it. Of course, I’m sure there’ll be bug reports, but for the most part it should be better than what was there.

I’ve got Mono 1.0 Beta 1 in 10.3 unstable now. It’s not in 10.2 because of some library-loading issues I haven’t worked out yet. This release includes gtk-sharp (which almost entirely works now!), and monodoc, the C#/mono/GTK# documentation browser. It also includes cairo and libgdiplus, which add the Mono.Cairo and System.Drawing APIs, respectively. I ran a buttload of the tests from gtk-sharp, screenshots are here. If you have any suggestions of apps to port to make sure things are generally working, let me know. =)

Well, today’s my birthday, the big 2-8. Cynthia sent me some flowers to work, they’re very nice! I also got Angel, seasons 1-3 from Dad & Patty… I’ve got lots of TV watching to catch up on. =) Going out to Maggiano’s tonight for dinner, assuming I’m not too sick to go (I had a 100-something fever last night, although I’m feeling quite a bit better now.) On the subject of things you people are coming here for (grin), I’m going to be working on packaging KDE 3.2.2 for Fink, it’s due out soon. I should have some time to work on it tomorrow evening, expect checkins to experimental soon. Also, I’d talked about working on gtk-sharp, according to the I give up / Mac OS X PPC support thread on the Mono discussion list, my best bet is to wait a bit. There is someone who is starting to actively work on the OSX/PPC port; most of the brokenness is known issues and just needs some time from Miguel’s team to get cleaned up. For now I’m going to hold off on working on it and come back when they get things . . . → Read More: Happy Birthday To Me

Just haven’t been updating the blog recently. Things I’ve been working on:
Getting GTK# to work on Mac OS X Trying to get the KDE upgrade issues fixed up so that I can move 3.2.1 to stable in Fink. Profit!
KDE 3.2.2 is coming down the pipe very soon, I’ll probably spend a week or so getting that working once it hits the packager list.
